| # ART_HIST 329: Digital Mediterranean Project | ||
|
|
||
| This is a *bare-minimum* template to create a [Jekyll] site that: | ||
| This is an online guide for your Digital Mediterranean Project for ART_HIST 329: Art and Architecture of the Medieval Mediterranean World. | ||
|
|
||
| - uses the [Just the Docs] theme; | ||
| - can be built and published on [GitHub Pages]; | ||
| - can be built and previewed locally, and published on other platforms. | ||
|
|
||
| More specifically, the created site: | ||
|
|
||
| - uses a gem-based approach, i.e. uses a `Gemfile` and loads the `just-the-docs` gem; | ||
| - uses the [GitHub Pages / Actions workflow] to build and publish the site on GitHub Pages. | ||
| ## What is a StoryMap? | ||
|
|
||
| To get started with creating a site, simply: | ||
| This assignment will teach us to use [ArcGIS StoryMaps](https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-storymaps/overview), which is a web-based story-authoring application, to create and share your digital map of monuments and objects in the medieval Mediterranean with narrative text, images, sources, videos, audio, and other multimedia content. | ||
|
|
||
| 1. click "[use this template]" to create a GitHub repository | ||
| 2. go to Settings > Pages > Build and deployment > Source, and select GitHub Actions | ||
| ## Assignment Instructions | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to maintain your docs in the `docs` directory of an existing project repo, see [Hosting your docs from an existing project repo](#hosting-your-docs-from-an-existing-project-repo). | ||
| Students must choose five (5) locations out of thirteen (13) to set up their GIS map. They place a monument or object at each location. Students will enter the metadata information based on their scholarly research. They must use at least two peer-reviewed references and two citations for each location’s monument or object. They can also use their class lecture notes. | ||
|
|
||
| After completing the creation of your new site on GitHub, update it as needed: | ||
|
|
||
| ## Replace the content of the template pages | ||
|
|
||
| Update the following files to your own content: | ||
|
|
||
| - `index.md` (your new home page) | ||
| - `README.md` (information for those who access your site repo on GitHub) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Changing the version of the theme and/or Jekyll | ||
|
|
||
| Simply edit the relevant line(s) in the `Gemfile`. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Adding a plugin | ||
|
|
||
| The Just the Docs theme automatically includes the [`jekyll-seo-tag`] plugin. | ||
|
|
||
| To add an extra plugin, you need to add it in the `Gemfile` *and* in `_config.yml`. For example, to add [`jekyll-default-layout`]: | ||
|
|
||
| - Add the following to your site's `Gemfile`: | ||
|
|
||
| ```ruby | ||
| gem "jekyll-default-layout" | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| - And add the following to your site's `_config.yml`: | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| plugins: | ||
| - jekyll-default-layout | ||
| ``` | ||
| Note: If you are using a Jekyll version less than 3.5.0, use the `gems` key instead of `plugins`. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Publishing your site on GitHub Pages | ||
|
|
||
| 1. If your created site is `YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-SITE-NAME`, update `_config.yml` to: | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| title: YOUR TITLE | ||
| description: YOUR DESCRIPTION | ||
| theme: just-the-docs | ||
| url: https://YOUR-USERNAME.github.io/YOUR-SITE-NAME | ||
| aux_links: # remove if you don't want this link to appear on your pages | ||
| Template Repository: https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-SITE-NAME | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| 2. Push your updated `_config.yml` to your site on GitHub. | ||
|
|
||
| 3. In your newly created repo on GitHub: | ||
| - go to the `Settings` tab -> `Pages` -> `Build and deployment`, then select `Source`: `GitHub Actions`. | ||
| - if there were any failed Actions, go to the `Actions` tab and click on `Re-run jobs`. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Building and previewing your site locally | ||
|
|
||
| Assuming [Jekyll] and [Bundler] are installed on your computer: | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Change your working directory to the root directory of your site. | ||
|
|
||
| 2. Run `bundle install`. | ||
|
|
||
| 3. Run `bundle exec jekyll serve` to build your site and preview it at `localhost:4000`. | ||
|
|
||
| The built site is stored in the directory `_site`. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Publishing your built site on a different platform | ||
|
|
||
| Just upload all the files in the directory `_site`. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Customization | ||
|
|
||
| You're free to customize sites that you create with this template, however you like! | ||
|
|
||
| [Browse our documentation][Just the Docs] to learn more about how to use this theme. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Hosting your docs from an existing project repo | ||
|
|
||
| You might want to maintain your docs in an existing project repo. Instead of creating a new repo using the [just-the-docs template](https://github.com/just-the-docs/just-the-docs-template), you can copy the template files into your existing repo and configure the template's Github Actions workflow to build from a `docs` directory. You can clone the template to your local machine or download the `.zip` file to access the files. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Copy the template files | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Create a `.github/workflows` directory at your project root if your repo doesn't already have one. Copy the `pages.yml` file into this directory. GitHub Actions searches this directory for workflow files. | ||
|
|
||
| 2. Create a `docs` directory at your project root and copy all remaining template files into this directory. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Modify the GitHub Actions workflow | ||
|
|
||
| The GitHub Actions workflow that builds and deploys your site to Github Pages is defined by the `pages.yml` file. You'll need to edit this file to that so that your build and deploy steps look to your `docs` directory, rather than the project root. | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Set the default `working-directory` param for the build job. | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| build: | ||
| runs-on: ubuntu-latest | ||
| defaults: | ||
| run: | ||
| working-directory: docs | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| 2. Set the `working-directory` param for the Setup Ruby step. | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| - name: Setup Ruby | ||
| uses: ruby/setup-ruby@v1 | ||
| with: | ||
| ruby-version: '3.1' | ||
| bundler-cache: true | ||
| cache-version: 0 | ||
| working-directory: '${{ github.workspace }}/docs' | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| 3. Set the path param for the Upload artifact step: | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| - name: Upload artifact | ||
| uses: actions/upload-pages-artifact@v1 | ||
| with: | ||
| path: "docs/_site/" | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| 4. Modify the trigger so that only changes within the `docs` directory start the workflow. Otherwise, every change to your project (even those that don't affect the docs) would trigger a new site build and deploy. | ||
|
|
||
| ```yaml | ||
| on: | ||
| push: | ||
| branches: | ||
| - "main" | ||
| paths: | ||
| - "docs/**" | ||
| ``` | ||
